    I pay for it just because it’s cheap and to support them

    I did this too when it first came out, and then the product became robust enough that I recommended we implement it at work because secrets management was non-existent. We have a bunch of licenses on the Enterprise plan now and it just keeps getting better each update.

    My only complaint is that migrating the data to a new server is a pain in the ass and never works correctly, even when following the migration instructions to the letter. Always have to open a ticket with them for that. Not enough of a pain to move to another product, though.

    I also still pay for my personal plan. It really is a fantastic product.

        Because we have some contracts that stipulate any data related to the project, including secrets/credentials, must remain on-site, and in some cases, on an air-gapped network. Doesn’t make sense to spin up something else to manage those secrets when Bitwarden can do it all and satisfy the requirements of those contracts.

        Pretty uncommon to host company credentials via 3rd party as policy. It wouldn’t even be legal under national law for my field of work for example.

          Obviously situations are different but the majority of standard businesses will let bitwarden host. In fact, I’d put more trust in bitwarden than than most self hosting teams.
